Thanks and, yep sounds like episode 7 emoticon

Will be interesting to see if they are skipping some episodes or if they're just trying to get more variety by jumping all over the map.

Apparently this is what the description said on Virgin Media for episode 2

"Jonathan Ross narrates as a new batch of contestants head for the castle. Prepare for thrils, spills and a whoe load of soggy shorts as they encounter Stepping Stone and Bridge the Gap"

Just about as much effort and accuracy as I expect from the show emoticon

"Bridge the Gap" is super annoying but if they call Skipping Stones "Stepping Stone", I'll lose it emoticon

I'm not actually put off by the misnaming or the game arrangement. From my perspective, we should focus on the commentary - it's one of the key factors to making this edition a success. If you have problems with arrangement, send in our Best Of's. Let's see what they think.

I understand your point, but it just kinda puts me off.

It's not that the commentary comes secondary but I feel like changing the game-order is sort of them messing it up the first opportunity I get. I completely understand swapping game order, but Slippery Wall doesn't make sense fourth.

Had they had a few episodes before showing Bridge Ball as the first game in an episode, i wouldn't have minded, but being the first game shown on the new series seems a bit dumb to me as a Challenge version fan.

Obviously just my opinion while most people probably don't care about that. I'm a person who likes familiarity which I'm sure changes how I view this new series emoticon

Re: Takeshi's Castle Thailand WILL air in the Uk...


I’ve just had a look on catch up and what was supposed to be the second episode was on there. And yep, it had STEPPING STONE and Bridge the Gap. Skipping Stones was the first game, Slippery Wall was in the middle again. The majority of the episode was TCT ep 2 I think. It ended with a winner.

I’ve got a suspicion that after all the complaints about the first episode, they decided to show another episode that they assumed was better. I didn’t look at the feedback it got this week, but I’ll assume more of the same.

Had a look at the credits, and very surprised that the script ‘assistant’ wasn’t the people that did Washout. It’s so, so similar(ly awful).

Looked up the producers. One of them has only ever worked on crappy clip shows (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2000399). That explains the editing then.

I think you're on to something!

So they've had an episode of 1 and 2, an episode mainly of 2 and an episode of 7 so far.

So yeah, they might have just about as many episodes as the Thai version did if they continue at this rate.

Interesting that the first game in two of the episodes has been taken from a far later episode than the rest (Bridge Ball in the first one and Skipping Stones in this one).

No. Total Wipeout was pretty funny while this is way too serious and doesn't have any atmosphere emoticon

The guys name makes it sound like he has a mouthful of pretzels. I find it possible. His name sounds crisp. It is crunchy a little. He also speaks like he is chewing a pretzel rod. I find it delectable however serious sounding. Does it make sense.

I think the show shall be eliminated. I appreciate the hosts serious nature. I find it appluadable. The show is crappy for certain. I think the franchise will eliminate it. The Tasheiki franchise is quite upset. They can yank the plug probably. I find it possible.

What is the pulling a rope challenge. It is new huh? I find it possible.

From the Comedy Central article that Dan retweeted on Twitter.

I'm almost lost for words, it really says it all. What is the finale all about? Why do we have the show?

Maybe they should watch the darn show and figure it out first.
